I’ve been extremely disappointed in stones throw for the past year or so. The only good releases they’ve had have been that baron zen remix album (danny breaks and dam funk have the only dope tracks though) and james pants’ debut. As an aside I have to big up danny for his set at new bohemia last week. Its too bad there weren’t enough people representing..
Anyways, i guess stones throw have been mad busy launching their new website and digital store. i peeped it for the first time in ages yesterday and the site is looking so clean. upon perusing the digi store, i saw this and immediately copped it on principle for a cold $9.99.
the story behind this is that although everyone is eagerly waiting for madvillainy 2 (which might never come out…) madlib decided to take doom’s vocals and make some good old boombap music to it. Its 25 tracks deep and quite good, but not as good as the original in my opinion. Its hard to fuck with classics. it also includes a few tracks that weren’t on the original..
Then I saw the crazy box set they’re also putting out for a physical release of this remix album - for $125! Insane. But its worth it, if you’re still completely obsessed with doom. It includes a limited edition 7″, a dope shirt, a copy of the demo tape that ” wasn’t even tweaked but got leaked into cyberspace”, a comic book which continues the ALL CAPS video and some fresh packaging.
Just to remind you how dope that video is:
These days you have to go all out to make people not want to download shit, and i think stones throw have done a really good job forcing fans to buy shit. I thought about buying it for a minute, but then remembered I’m not too down with Doom since his agent said the only way he would do a verse for ASM is if we paid him $10,000-20,000. For one verse! Do one DOOM.
